The Blind Spot That Almost Killed Us: Why AI for ICS Needs IT/OT Integration 🎙️ Harry Thomas, CTO & Co-Founder, Frenos 📍 Presented at SANS AI Cybersecurity Summit 2026 Problem: OT-only monitoring left threat hunters blind to how adversaries actually reached critical substations during a red team engagement. Approach: Deployed AI attack path simulation against a digital twin. Mid-exercise, integrated enterprise IT data after discovering the visibility gap. Result: AI predicted the exact six-stage attack chain days before the red team exploited it. 50+ viable paths identified within hours. Threat hunters got a map instead of guessing.
